Did you guys bother to read the thread?? I will be at the total wines as long as my new tires come in by then. Anyone have recommendations as to where I can get the 275/35/18's installed? Nobody wants to do it.

Thanks. I bought'em off Ebay. Excellent quality. I like this one since it wraps around the entire tips and fewer and subtle fins. Here's close-up so you can see.

Excellent choice for your diffuser, the car looks so nice !!!

How the hell did I miss this thread??

WOW, looks great!! Thanks for sharing man..

Hey Jon.

I spoke to Edwin at need4speed and he got the same wheels and set up you have. I ordered them and the should be her in a week. Im ordering the adjustableairride arms now. Thanks for the advise. I will post pics when i get them on. My cars black so it would be cool to see how it looks. Yours looks awesome in silver.
Thanks Bro

Thanks man

Thanks. Glad that you liked my pictures

Awesome! He's a real great guy, honest with his products and very fair with his prices... Please PM me or let me know if I can assist you with any questions or complications should they arise during the links install or anything else Good luck and please share pics once finished

Blownbenz...Looking forward to seeing some photos.
I am also considering these rims but would like to see what they look like on a black car.

Hey,
I just ordered the lowering links from adjustableairride.com
Im hoping they are as easy to install as you said it was. Im bringing it to a local independent shop for install. Im just wondering how they go about adjusting the new hieght though. Can I adjust it to any hieght I like or is it just one setting. How do these actually work.
Also Im assuming it will need a full alignment after its lowered. I assume the MB dealer should be able to do it easiliy.
Thanks
P.S. I cant wait to post picks when its done

Cool! Cool! It was super easy install. I was hoping that you would do the install so that you can adjust the height yourself. You may have to take it back to the shop few times to get it exactly how you want it since you have to shorten and lengthen the actual links themselves to lower or raise.
Links out of the box are stock height, I believe every 5mm changes in links lower or raise the car 3/4 to an inch. Front, lengthen to lower. Rears, shorten to lower.
I lenghtened my front links about 8mm and shortened rear link about 5mm. Gave me about 1.5" front and 1" rear drop.
As far as full alignment, it's up to you as most shops/dealers are capable. Let me know how they turn out.

Jon

LOOKS perfect.....

Hey,
Im getting the wheels and lowering kit installed today. I willpost pics when its done.

Wow. Just got my E55 back. It was lowered 3/4 of an ich and is finally on the 20s. The 285s fit perfectly in the rear. No rubbing what so ever. Car looks so mean and aggressive now. I should of changed the wheels years ago.
I will post pics as soon as I get a chance.

Thanks again to E43sport for all the help

No prob^^. Can't wait til pics!!!

Ive ordered some links also, quick question - do you adjust the links when you have your suspension in the lowest setting. I assume you do as if you did it when it was in comfort and went down to the lowest setting it might rub?

Yes you set the new hieght in sport 2 mode. The way mine is set up now if i put it in comfort it goes back to stock sport 2 setting

Blown benz.............Have you had a chance to take any pictures yet?

Wow! That is a great looking car. I love that diffuser and hope it will fit my new (to me) 06 E55 Estate. I am new to MB, but I'm very impressed so far.
Did you already have your DC meet? I am in Fairfax, just around the corner from you.

I just posted pics in a new post. You can find it under the following
(New Wheels and a few other mods. PICS Included)
You can search it.
Thanks again for all your help E43sport

Thanks. I think it should fit. There's a gray E63 Estate that I see all the time by my house in Oakton. It appeared to have similar OEM diffuser... Cool another neighbor

e43sport, I hope you don't mind but i will be copying the look of your car when I get an E55. Currently looking for one. Your car looks awesome.
